Wild Food of Hedgerow and Woodland - East Loch Lomond

A half day of woodland and hedgerow foraging instruction.
This Wild Adventure improves our connection with wilder places by introducing and developing the skills needed to forage for edible and medicinal plants and fungi - helping you to recognise and fully appreciate the deliciousness of wild abundance.
Foraging and Folklore events include:
- Guidance to develop your plant and fungi ID skills
- Advice to spark your creativity and confidence to use wild ingredients for delicious recipes and traditional remedies at home.
- Tales from folklore to help to secure plants and mushrooms firmly in your imagination
- Samples of wild food and foraged treats to engage all of your senses for maximum recall of each wild wonder!
- Refreshing wild herbal tea or wild cordial
- Guidance on books, kit and other resources to develop your foraging skills
We walk at a gentle pace, like curious snails, stopping to notice and examine the plants and fungi that we find. The session includes a break roughly half-way through to relax and recap over a cup of wild herbal tea or cordial. At the end of the session we will go over our finds and discuss further reading and alternative sources of information.
Please dress for the weather, including sturdy outdoor shoes (if it's dry, trainers are fine). Please bring a water bottle, especially in warm weather. Wild food samples will be provided, but please bring a packed lunch if you would like something more substantial.
If you have mobility or access concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me: [email protected] so I can ensure your needs are met.
Tickets £45 per person, suitable for all aged 12 and over.
With regret, dogs cannot be accommodated at these events (service dogs are welcome, please contact emma@curious-in-nature to arrange).
